:58:01
...which you brought back from Mexico.
:58:04
It hasn't been thoroughly tested yet
and is dangerous as hell.
:58:09
What else did Mason write you?
:58:11
That over the past year you've taken
about two grams of that drug yourself...
:58:16
...and you had a very unusual instance of
genetic regression about three months ago.
:58:20
You may have leukemia or lymphoma.
:58:25
He's been trying to get you
to go for a complete workup...
:58:27
...but you've refused to go.
:58:30
He's worried stiff that you're cracking up.
:58:32
He thinks you're behaving very strangely...
:58:35
...and he begged me to talk to you
about this when I got back.
:58:39
Mason is pathologically incapable
of keeping his mouth shut about anything.
:58:43
-He's a stupid, starched, doctrinaire idiot!
-Mason is a first-rate doctor!
:58:46
It's not leukemia!
:58:50
Or any other kind of cancer!
:58:53
I've let him do a liver-spleen scan on me
and a CAT scan.
:58:56
I have been probed, scoped and palpated!
:58:58
He's had a mirror down my throat
or up my ass for the last three months...
:59:02
...and there is no evidence,
no suggestion whatsoever of cancer!
:59:05
What else did Mason write you?
:59:09
Which of these has
the baboon vocalizations on them?
:59:11
-I'd like to hear them.
-Why?
:59:13
Did he write you that during
the regression...
:59:16
...I had an aphasic experience
for about four hours?
:59:18
The only sounds I could get out were
clicks and grunts.
:59:21
They sound like the baboon vocalizations
on your tapes.
:59:23
Mason said you took blood tests
and the lab report showed...
:59:25
...some characteristics
of simian blood group systems.
:59:28
They also picked up antigens
specific to man.
:59:30
I'd like to see that data.
:59:31
The thing to do is for me to get back
to that isolation tank and try it again!
:59:35
Let's see if it happens again!
None of us really believes it happened.
:59:38
After three months, I'm beginning
to wonder if it ever happened myself.
:59:42
They won't go back to the tank.
Mason's taken over the project.
:59:45
He's got Arthur up in his lab every day
fractionating rats' brains!
:59:48
What the hell am I supposed to do
while they're fractionating rats' brains?
:59:56
Everybody thinks your father's going nuts.
:59:59
Mommy, when are we going to eat?
